DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.38116/ipcid-wp001https://repositorio.ipea.gov.br/handle/11058/13797O estudo debate o papel do sistema de herança do Brasil na desigualdade de riqueza. As leis civis brasileiras têm incentivado a transferência de propriedade para os filhos devido à regra dos herdeiros necessários. Pesquisas domiciliares mostram que os 5% mais ricos da população tiveram menos filhos e mais capital para transferir para seus herdeiros sob mínima tributação, especialmente durante a ditadura militar (1964-1988), quando apenas transferências de imóveis eram tributadas.engAcesso AbertoThe Role of Brazil’s inheritance system in wealth inequalityWorking Paper IPCid 001 : The Role of Brazil’s inheritance system in wealth inequalityWorking paperInstituto de Pesquisa Econômica Aplicada (Ipea)HerançaLicença Padrão IpeaThe text and data in this publication may be reproduced as long as the source is cited.
